Child care allowance

You can receive this allowance if:

• you are admitted to a full-time course
• you have one or more dependent children aged 12 or under, or a handicapped person under your care who lives with you while you are taking your French course
• you need child care service to free you during course hours
• your spouse is unable to provide child care because he works, studies or is sick.

This allowance reimburses the real costs of child care paid by the student, up to a maximum of $25 a day per dependent child, depending on different child care situations.
